Hello all, was hoping to get some direction. I have a stock Yamaha 1985 exhaust and have exhaust leaks coming from the two rear pipes at the headers. I purchased new copper washers and am having problems with them seating and sealing properly, I have lined the exhaust covers up and have snugged...

Update I took the oil filter assembly apart and found that the small o-ring was split and the big one was loose. I replaced them with the originals and put all back together. All is great and I only got a few drops of light dirty oil which was just what was left on the outer cover due to unwiped...

Thanks for the input, I noticed that the new o-ring was a bit smaller and rounder hopefully it will swell. If not I will take it apart and check it all out. I have a 1985 California 1200 Model.

I got all the parts needed put all back together and after starting engine a see a small drip seeping out of the oil filter bolt? The oil filter that I ordered had the 2 o-rings included, I installed them and smeared all areas with oil, any ideas on why I have a new leak now?

You have a lot of good questions as I do. When I took off the carb I noticed that the screws where different sizes and one had a washer on it. Looks like a botched attempt and the exhaust to me is stock, unless there is a magical baffle system that slips into the stock pipes. The top air box is...

I opened one carb and this is what I found, any ideas?

I have the standard Vmax airbox. I don't know what aftermarket breather system was installed and to get to it I would have to take off the carbs. If I have to I will to get to the bottom of it...

I took a few pics of this system, there is a canister between the carbs that forks out to 2 little filters and the hose on the other side goes to the oil filler on the right side of the engine.

Hey I have a few questions, I drained my oil today and noticed that the oil filter flat washer and oil drain plug washer are missing, also I bough an oil filter that has 2 o-rings. I know where the large one goes but does anyone know where the smaller one goes? Also where can I get the washers...

Is there anyplace on the Internet where pics are posted of this Stage 7 system, All that I'm finding is one's with four K&N filters I don't have these filters only 2 small 1 1/2 inch ones.

I will check the carbs.

Just giving an update, I haven't gotten around to taking pics yet but I think the unit I have installed is an Engine Breather.
